The First Lady In My Life lyrics

From sleepless nights and rocking chairs
Your smiling face was always there
From little trucks and building blocks
You held my hand while I learned to walk
You were my best friend, my inspiration
The one I looked up to..
Hey Mom...The First Lady In My Life Was You

There were bedtime snacks and nursery rhymes
For goodnight prayers, there was always time
You taught me to live by the golden rule
Made sure I got to Sunday School
You disciplined with Love my whole life through
A gentle touch was all I ever knew..
Hey Mom...The First Lady In My Life Was You

Then later on, came sports and games
You'd sit in the stands and call my name
And win or lose, you'd smile and say
"Son I'm proud of you, everything's OK"
You were the one, I'd always turn to
When times were sad and blue..
Hey Mom...The First Lady In My Life Was You

There's so many things to say thank you for
Birthdays, camping and so much more
The little things that mean so much
Like laundry done with a loving touch
And who could forget, three meals a day
Carpools, scouts and PTA's..
Hey Mom...The First Lady In My Life Was You

So here we are today, now I'm finally grown
About to take a wife, and start a family of my own
Everything I am, I owe to you
You molded me so carefully and you saw me through
It's hard to tell you how I feel, without a lot of mush
But I must tell you true..
Hey Mom, I'm So Glad...The First Lady In My Life Was You
